  • Patent number: 5427708
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to liquid soap which includes a glow-in-the-dark feature. The soap has a basic soap composition and includes an effective amount of active glow-in-the-dark material contained within the soap and is dispersed therethrough. The glow-in-the-dark material, dispersed directly into the soap, may be chemiluminescent, phosphorus or other known active glow-in-the-dark material. By "active" is meant that it glows in the dark before being dispensed and is not latent material which requires an initiator such as air, water, or other stimulant to be activated. In another embodiment, the liquid soap itself does not contain the glow-in-the-dark material, but contains a glow-in-the-dark object, such as a toy or ornament object.
